"At the end of 2010, I released Pearls as a CD edition. The response was more than I'd imagined. I was flooded with warm and enthusiastic emails from listeners and artists. It was one of those moments where everything you strive for as an artist, to create a work with integrity and meaning, had happened. It seemed the album really meant something to people and it certainly meant something to me. I've had a lot of requests over the years to release Pearls as a vinyl edition. Now that enough time has passed, we're doing just that. We had the LP jackets made by the same talented craftspeople at Stumptown Printers to honor the original CD packaging. The album has new life on vinyl. It sounds different, richer, and it floats more. The patience in the music is more forward, almost as if its been waiiting to exist on vinyl all along and has found comfort in its new home." (C.Allen)
